1 PART 1: GENERAL 1.01 Luminaires A. This standard is intended to provide useful information to the Professional Service Provider (PSP) to establish a basis of design for new construction and renovations. The responsibility of the engineer is to apply the principles of this section such that the University may achieve a level of quality and consistency in the design and construction of their facilities. Deviations from these guidelines must be justified through Life Cycle Cost (LCC) analysis and submitted to the University for approval. B. Lighting design shall meet the requirements of the currently adopted revision of ASHRAE 90.1 and meet the recommended illumination levels of the current edition of the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) Lighting Handbook. C. Unless specifically approved by Owner, the lighting design shall yield lighting power densities a minimum of 25% below the values allowed in the current ASHRAE 90.1 standard. For fluorescent lighting systems in new construction (or renovations with fixture replacements) and with typical ceiling heights of approximately 9 feet, this can be accomplished by using light colored wall finishes and 2-lamp high efficiency fixtures with the components specified below. Variations in lighting levels resulting from finish color, fixture spacings and height are accommodated by specifying the appropriate ballast factor. D. For renovations where fixture replacements are not desirable, high efficiency retrofit kits are available from fixture manufacturers and third party sources that provide efficiencies equal to new high efficiency fixtures. PART 2: PRODUCTS: 2.01 Interior Luminaires A. All fluorescent lamps installed within conditioned spaces shall be 4-foot straight tube, F28T8, 28-watt, high lumen output energy saving type or 2-foot linear tube, F17T8 high lumen output type. All fluorescent lamps installed in unconditioned or refrigerated spaces shall be 4-foot straight tube, F32T8, 32- watt, high lumen output energy savings type. All linear 17, 28 and 32 watt fluorescent lamps shall have a minimum rated life of 24,000 hours at 3 hours/start (instant start ballast), 95% or higher lumen maintenance and have a color temperature of 4,100 K. No eight-foot lamps allowed. Use combination of 4-foot lengths in 8 foot fixtures. B. Prismatic acrylic diffusers for fluorescent fixtures shall be A12 pattern and at least 1/8 thick. Do not use styrene lenses. Design & Construction Standards, Revised Sept

Where not separately switched three or four lamp fixtures may contain 3 and 4 lamp ballasts. Ballast factor shall be 0.77 or 0.78 for Low Powered ballasts, between 0.85 and 0.90 for Normal Powered ballasts, and greater than 1.12 for high output ballasts.

Ballasts shall designed to accommodate multiple voltage input, shall have built in anti-striation technology and utilize parallel lamp operation circuitry. Ballasts shall further be designed such that the output frequency to the lamps does not interfere with common infrared devices (typically 40kHz or greater).. E. Do not use low pressure sodium or mercury vapor lamps 2.02 Exterior Luminaires Design & Construction Standards, Revised Sept

3 A. Exterior luminaires including illumination sources shall be selected based on the following performance criteria unless specifically approved otherwise: 1.
